Commerce Minister Emma Hippolyte has stated that the energy emanating from the growth of small business entities on the island is extremely appealing.
Minister Hippolyte and a technical team which included Director (AG) of the Small Business Development Centre Jonathan Allain and Business Development Officer Naila Sule undertook a tour of five small businesses based in Odsan, Bexon and Dennery.
The visit to the business establishments was geared to elicit some feedback from the management personnel.
According to a ministry spokesperson, these continued site visits demonstrate the Ministry of Commerce’s boots-on-the-ground approach to the development of Micro-, Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (MSMEs) – most of whom had adopted sustainable practices within their operations. Businesses visited were Greening the Caribbean – Recycling Services Center, Fresh Nutz, Mitchel’s Moss Mixes, Farm Foods and BJC.
